- Earthquake Hazards
- 1. Ground shaking
- Love waves cause the ground to shake from side
- Rayleigh waves causes the ground to move up and down
- Primary Effects
- Rayleigh waves causes the ground to move up and down
- Love waves cause the ground to shake from side
- 1. Liquefaction
- When seismic waves shake saturated sediment
- 2. Landslide + Rockfall
- 3. Tsunami
- Formed when rapid movement of ocean floor displaces a column of water
- A series of waves travel outward at little heights
- As the wave approaches land, its energy is compressed into a smaller space, forcing it to gain weight
- A series of waves travel outward at little heights
- Formed when rapid movement of ocean floor displaces a column of water
- 3. Tsunami
- Secondary Effects
- Factors increasing EQ power.
